Commercial, Editorial, and Film Project

Michler’s has served as the backdrop to television ads, fashion shoots and more. All projects with the purpose of advertisements, re-sale, or other uses with large distribution will require a location permit to be arranged and paid for in advance. Please write to us at flora@michlers.com with the nature of your project and we will be in touch.

Professional Portrait and Group Photography Sessions are required to apply and purchase a photography permit
